THE NEW YORKER thought I was "away from it all," but I was about to go to Italy, and I had no Baedeker for that country, and the American Library in Paris had three, so I took one. I did salve my con- science by telling myself that I took the oldest and most shop-worn of the three. I even planned to give it back. But then I discovered a horrible fact. I realized that if you should ever give one stolen book back, you would find you must begin to give them all back. If you started replacing them, the replacing of them would undoubt- edly have as deadly a fascination for you as did the stealing. No! No! No- nono! I must postpone that débâcle. -EXTRA "y -f/Ø <,.

He said it was rich silver studded with rhinestones- a quaint idea, I thought, and well worth sixty-five cents of anyone's money just to view it. The only lavatories I encountered were inlaid with mother-of-pearl and studded with topazes--quite fetching, you will agree-but the rhinestont idea intrigued me and I wandered about, determ'ined to make my af ter- noon a success. I finally carne upon a gorgeous blonde young person wIth an Astoria accent, who seemed willing to give me some information. Being a shy and retiring individual it took me several minutes to get up enough courage to ask her to direct. me; but after studying her face I decided that she was fundamentally kind and would understand. I approached her, smiling my best smile : "Would you direct me, please, to the gentlemen's ?" "Men's College Room through the main hall-last door to your right and downstairs," she said, and turned away from me. "Thank you," I said, "but I'm look- ing for the gentlemen's-" "You want the gents' lavatory, don't you r" she snapped. " y " . d I " h h . es, sal , t e r Inestone- studded one."
